FQS-Newsletter September 2004

Dear All,

I would like to inform you that the 16th FQS Issue is now available online. The "Special Issue: FQS Interviews I"—edited by Guenter Mey, Cesar A. Cisneros Puebla & Robert Faux—provides 16 interviews with researchers, who have contributed to the development and promotion of qualitative research: Ron Chenail, Aaron Cicourel, Juliet Corbin, Bob Dick, Carolyn Ellis & Art Bochner, Ken Gergen, Mary Gergen, Gerhard Kleining, Janice Morse, Maya Nadig, Ian Parker, Judith Preissle, Michael Roth & Ken Tobin, Hans-Georg Soeffner, Anselm Strauss, Hans Thomae. From the editors: "Those scholars interviewed in this issue … must be seen as being 'on the road', leading the way for the rest of us. Among our hopes is that the next generation of qualitative researchers will be educated, amused, and, most importantly, inspired by these colleagues."

As always, FQS 5(3) additionally contains selected single contributions, texts, belonging to the FQS Debate: "Qualitative Research and Ethics," to FQS Reviews, and to FQS Conferences.

See below the table of contents and some additional information.

• FQS 5(3)—Special Issue: FQS Interviews I

• Requests and comments from our readers

• Open Access News

We wish hopefully stimulating readings and discussions!
